Lyrics and translation
Original
Hey there mama, how you been?
Thought I'd call and check on in
See how things are going back at home
Tell me how's your garden doin'
I'm sure the daffodils are bloomin'
And what you got for supper on the stove?
It sounds like you're doing fine
Me, I'm gettin' by
There's a chain gang waitin' in a long line to use this phone
Same old view, a cinder block room, same old jumpsuit on
I'm just tryna make the best of the rest of this life sentence
But enough about me, I only get 15 minutes
Not dwellin' on it makes it better
What books you readin'? How's the weather?
Think dad'll ever talk to me again
Does he still drink beer with his buddies?
Are you still teachin' bible study?
Does Jesus really forgive all my sins?
Well, all kinds of things cross your mind
With all this doin' time
And a chain gang waitin' in a long line to use this phone
Same old view, a cinder block room, same old jumpsuit on
I'm just tryna make the best of the rest of this life sentence
But enough about me, I only get 15 minutes
The warden's in here tappin' on his watch
I love you mom, but I gotta go, I got
A chain gang waitin' in a long line to use this phone
Same old view, a cinder block room, same old jumpsuit on
I'm just tryna make the best of the rest of this life sentence
But enough about me, I only get 15 minutes
